MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049853 A) filed by Ms. Sutha I; Dr. Sanjith S; and Dr. J James Alaguraja, Vaddakkankulam, Tamil Nadu, on April 19, for 'a system and method for adaptive identification of zero-day exploit indicators in distributed computing environments.'

Inventor(s) include Ms. Sutha I; Dr. Sanjith S; and Dr. J James Alaguraja.

The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system and method for adaptive identification of zero-day exploit indicators in distributed computing environments. The invention collects multi-layer telemetry from endpoints, servers, virtual machines, containers, cloud workloads, applications, identity systems, and network resources, and transforms the collected telemetry into unified event objects for context-aware analysis. Contextual feature representations are generated to detect anomaly fragments including process lineage deviations, memory execution irregularities, privilege misuse patterns, system-call divergence, network communication novelty, and service dependency anomalies. Said anomaly fragments are correlated into exploit-related chains based on temporal and semantic relationships, and an exploit likelihood score is computed without requiring a pre-existing exploit signature. The invention further generates an explanation output identifying contributing anomaly factors and initiates one or more defensive response actions including enhanced logging, forensic capture, containment, credential challenge, or isolation. The invention thereby enables early, adaptive, and explainable detection of previously unknown exploit activity with improved accuracy in distributed computing environments."
